mammalian CNS, the actions of which are regulated by ionotropic glutamate (iGlu) and metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGlu). mGlu receptors are a family of G-protein-coupled receptors comprising eight members, refered to as mGlu1-8. Group I receptors include mGlu1 and mGlu5, which when expressed are coupled via Gq to phospholipase C. Group II (mGlu2 and mGlu3) and group III (mGlu4,6,7,8) recep...

Positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) of a7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors can enhance ion channel currents and downstream effects of a7 stimulation. We investigated the approach of using noncompetitive antagonists to regulate a7 receptor function, potentially distinguishing effects requiring ion channel currents from signaling induced by nonconducting states. Three small readily reversible ...

1. Twelve healthy subjects received high-voltage pulsed galvanic stimulation (115-475 V d.c.) delivered in separate treatments of 2, 32 and 128 pulses/s for 10 min at the subject's maximum tolerable voltage while calf muscle blood flow was measured by non-invasive Whitney strain-gauge venous occlusion plethysmography. 2. The high-voltage pulsed galvanic stimulation was administered with negativ...

This study was designed to evaluate the in vivo activity of cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) in 49 healthy Japanese subjects aged 22–58 years using endogenous cortisol 6b-hydroxylation clearance [CLm(6b)], a novel biomarker for CYP3A phenotyping. CLm(6b) in the 49 healthy subjects was 2.40 6 0.79 ml/min with an approximately 4fold interindividual variability of CYP3A activity. The mean clearance in t...

The four large Swedish lakes Vänern, Vättern, Mälaren and Hjälmaren differ in many respects, not least in drainage area characteristics and basin morphometry (1). The differences also include water quality. Since nutrient chemistry of phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) in the lakes is of major concern, it has been treated by several authors (2–13). The hydrochemical studies started in 1964 and in ...
